Introduction A. Background The Housin� and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Saint Paul, Minnesota (the "HRA") created the Block 4 Redevelopment Tax Increment District (the "DistricY') pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.174, Subd. 10, and adopted the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of the City of Saint Paul Tax Increment Financin� Plan for Block 4 Redevelopment Tax Increment Financing District (the "Plan") in connection therewith. Pursuant to the Plan, and the Contract for Redevelopment dated November 17, 1997 (the "A�eemenY') the HRA issued its taacable tax increment note to The Minnesota Mutual Life insurance Company, now known as Minnesota Life Insurance Company ("Minnesota Life") in the ori�inal principal amount of $1�,000,000 to finance $IS,OOQ000 ofpublic cosTs (the "1997 Note"). At the time of issuance of the 1997 Note, iY was anticipated that the 1997 Note �vould be fuliy paid from tax increments �enerated by the District. Subsequent to the creation of the District and the issuance of the 1997 Not�, changes in Minnesota tax law have made it unlikely that the 1997 IvTote wzll ever be paid in full. In addition, �6,000,000 of expected additional costs were incurred in connecrion �vith the acquisition and development of Che Project defined in the Plan. The Agreemen± contemplated the possibility that the additional Reimbursable Eligible Costs would be incurred in connection with the development of the Project Block, and that Minnesota Life could ask the HRA to provide additional financing for such additional Reimbursable Eligible Costs. B. Proposed Refmancing and Additional Financing It has been proposed that the HRA refmance the 1997 \TOte, and provide for the fmancin� of additional eligible costs, by issuin� a taac-exempt tax increment note in the ori�nal principal amount of $17,800,000, to�ether with a tasable tax increment note in an ori�inal principal amount not to exceed �3,200,000 (collectively the "2004 Notes"). It is expected that, duz to the decrease in debt service payable under this refinancing, that the 2004 Notes will be paid in full prior to the maximum term of the Dishict. zaa�asa 4� slsy I� IrTotes: Amendments to Plan ' The Plan is hereby amended in the following respects to reflect the issuance of the 2004 A. Part IV.A. of the Plan is hereby amended in its enrirety to read as follows: A.

The taY increment bud�et for the Dishict is attached hereto as Appendis B. B. Part IV.B of the Plan is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows: B. Incur costs and expenses connected with financing activities. The FIRA has previously issued the 1997 Note to fmance $15,000,000 of public costs. It is now anticipated that the HRA will refmance the 1997 Note and provide for the financin� of additional eligible costs, through the issuance of the 2004 Notes of which S17,800,000 is anticipated to be a tas-exempt tax increment note and an amount not to 1 Thz cost of the construcrion of the pazking ramp includes sufficient shuctural footings, support and load-bearing capaciTy to pemut the construction of a compazable second office tower above the pazkin� ramp. Such cosu aze not reimburseable from tax increments. 2447C51vt �a li3;030 o��sy exceed 53,200,000 is anticipated to be a taxable tax increment note. Proceeds of the 2004 Notes c�zll be used to refinance the 1997 Note and to reimburse Nlinnesota Life for additional public costs incurred in the acquisition of land, the construction of the pazkin� ramp, the costs of urility extension, li�htin�, sidewalks, streetscapes and road improvements. C. Part VII.�., B and C of the Plan are hereby amended in their entirety to read as follo�r A. Cost of the Project, including administrative expenses. The total cost of the Project was 5118,000,000 includin� aduiinistrative charges in an amount up to 10% of the tas increment expenditures. In addition to the upfront costs, an additional cost of the Proj ect will be a payment in the amount of appro�mately �57,000 per year throu�h 2008, to AMBAC, as the insurer of bonds presently outstandin� and secured by tax increments from the Seventh Place District. This payment will compensate t1MBAC for the decrease in increments from the Seventh Place District that will occur as a result of removing Block 4 from that district. B. Amount of bonded indebtedness to be incurred. The FIl2A shall be the issuer of the 2004 I�TOtes in an ag� egate principal amount not to exceed $21,000,000 to finance and refinance the public costs of development on Block 4. The I3RA may issue refunding bonds or notes for purposes of refinancin� such indebtedness. C. Sources of revenue to finance or othenvise pay project costs.

Inveshnent income zaa�asa�i Ii81630 O�..i/sy Certain intzrest eamin�s from the tas increments, if an�, will be a source of � revenue to pay� project costs. A current estimate of such eanun�s is not available. D. Part VIII of the Plan is hereby amended to re��se the section identified as "Impact on Tasing Jurisdictions" as follows: Impact on Tasing Jurisdictions In connection «�ith the creation of the District and adoption of the Plan, and under the assumption that the estimated capture net tax capacity ��ould be available to the taacin� jurisdictions �vithout creation of the District, creation of the District was estimated to deny these taxin� jurisdictions the taxes from the captured net tax capacity in the amount estimated in Table 1 belo�v. Note the District to be created is currentiv akeadv �vithin the Seventh Place District which expires in 2008. Therefore. the creation of this new District will denv the taxing jurisdictions those taxes onlv from the years 2009 to 2026. The amendment of the Plan, as contemplated by this First Amendment, is now expected to deny these taxing jurisdictions the taxes from the captured net tas capacity in the amounts estimated in Appendix A1 and Appendix A2 III. Ratification of Prior Findinas and Determinations The findings made by the HRA in the Plan cvith respect to the need and public purpose for the creation of the District and the Project, the objectives of the HRA far the improvements in the District, the classificarion of the District, and all other information contained in the Plan, are hereby ratified and affirmed as of the date made. zaa�a;a�t 4 1i81fi30 0 � ,. 0� �.�� ►_����.n�►:��i Es5matetllm ac!onOUxrTazin JuristlieSOnsRaoort S[ Paul P=_7, Minnesoa Ta<Incrxment:inancing fRadevHaomeny �istic[ Minresata MuNal Projzct Ar.antlmen[ to TIF Pian -CUrrent Mmugh 7008 .YiPO1 c•nK a � iF =r�.m; V:^Y �•a�tl�c i'F ���; ^.ct =ryaxa �ca'c�� _�:, 22:.'=TA 'r.g.aM Nex HYC-':`.:UC3 M,.ct"tl:�al T=: �xr�a>: T=31- �n�'�rjp� T�3i=, CSLf:v' Tac�la :+.�u:aC Gec�aln tYn.yan:C ?asr.s' �1Hr3!
